TORRES Perpetual 2015 | 750 ml

Torres Cos Perpetual 2015 is made from old-vine Grenache and Cariñena grown in licorella slate soils. The wine juice was fermented in stainless steel, with malolactic conversion and matured for 18 months in new French oak barrels. Although quite oaky just now, it has the body and abundance of blackberry, cherry fruit flavours to carry it through. Nice mocha and espresso flavours showing through from oak ageing. Bottled in 2017, this robust Priorat red can definitely benefit from a few years cellar time to show its best.

Grapes: Cariñena - Garnacha tinta

Size: 750ml

ABV: 12.5%

Origin: Spain

Notes

Spicy black-fruit aromas are potent, with side notes of clove, lemon peel and charred wood. This is lush, clean and modern in style. Fully ripe blackberry and cassis flavors come with an underlay of chocolaty oak. On a smooth finish, tobacco flavors stand out.

Food Pairing

Good with game meat and minced venison steak, roast pheasant stuffed with wild mushroom.
